The City Club of New York (CCNY) is a social and political organization founded in 1829. Their weekly public policy debates and discussions were broadcast on CUNY-TV throughout the 1990s. Efforts to preserve this program were made possible by "Uncovering CUNY's Audiovisual Heritage," a project funded by Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR).
